C'est la vie.

C'est la vie.

Sir? Would you please stop with the bad attitude?


I'm not asking for much. I just need to know how to browse groups on Facebook by category and/or city and to know how they work. I can take it from there, and give you guys an update. Part of my search for these special music buddies is that I know what I need to do and where I need to go, but not always HOW.

Why can't I reach some individuals on here who are much more willing to talk about what they are reccommending in more detail? A few people who I can simply have some REAL conversations with and learn something new?

C'est la vie.

new?

C'est la vie means "Such is life." IMO, it is a great attitude to have when dealing with things that are beyond my control. And since in my opinion it appears you looking for a fight or an argument... I have to accept it is beyond my control.

Accusing people of a bad attitude when you don't know the person's attitude is much like what you are asking people not to do. Assuming my temperament based on typed words with no inflection or tone, makes little sense. I'm not mad at you. I'm not even bothered by you. You are merely words on a screen, as far as I know. You may just be a spambot that has been sent to disrupt Bandmix by some competing music website. Who knows, really...

Anyways, whether you are a person or a spam program, I understand where you are coming from. But the harsh reality is, no one here has the answers you seek. Aside for the answers that have already been given. If you are unhappy with those answers, what are we to do? Spend our time trying to fix your life? Everyone's got problems. We all have our own personal shortcomings and daily lives and troubles to deal with. In fact, I'm not even sure why I am spending this time to write such a long response. Probably just my way of delaying getting back to my project, I guess.

Sir, I am NOT a spammer, and I'm not here looking for a fight. You didn't need to respond the way in which you did. Learn to leave well enough alone, and give someone else a chance.

I asked a SIMPLE questions:

How do you effectively search for groups on Facebook and how are they used?

How hard is it to answer a simple question I just asked so I can follow through on some earlier advice given? Why do so many people have the derpy attitude "figure it out yourself"?

I really do appreciate the help given thus far, but I cannot follow through on it due to the fact that I either don't know how to or due to the fact that nobody wants to share their experiences with me at the place they reccommended, among other small overlooked factors.

I came here to make new discoveries online and within my city, and to talk about what others with my music tastes have tried, and to discuss people's experiences and to have real conversations. Heck, maybe even make some more intimate online friends I can add to my Facebook page, and network with, and maybe eventually hang out with to meet these musicians I'm trying to find.

By the way, why is this place so quiet? I mean, there's usually only two or three members on at one time, which explains why I'm not reaching a whole lot of people on here. Although, forums with more active members on it doesn't make it any better, because it's all about the attitude of the individuals on the forum. If people on the forum are patient and loving, individuals I might be able to get the help I need, but if the people are the kind that like to make jokes, and post quick replies, then that's not very helpful for me, and can cause problems or confusion.

Well, you seem to have a problem where someone said 'Search for Groups on Facebook.' This may or may not be possible. I don't use facebook that often, but as far as I experienced, you could not narrow your search by city or state. That's the best I got for ya.

And if you are here to make friends and chat, you should really take a look at how you are saying things. I have not been banned from Craigslist, Band mix or any other forum based website. You've already stated you've been banned from a couple places. Maybe its time to look in the mirror and see what you are doing wrong. The way you talk about douchey and derpy attitudes because you don't like someone telling you that you have to figure it out yourself. Well, its just a fact of life. You do have to figure things out on your own for the most part. No one here seems like they are going to hold your hand and walk you through your life with baby steps. It is too much hassle. People can point you in a direction, but from there, what you do is up to you.

This is not the How to Use Facebook forum. This is a place where people come to share their music or meet other musicians and form a band. Maybe some on here will form friendships. But it doesn't happen overnight and it doesn't happen via writing down a checklist, posting it online, and then attacking anyone's character who dares say.... "Hey, people do not work like that." Most people won't just read your checklist and say "Hey, I meet all your criteria, so I've just found my best friend for life!!" Maybe one day you'll start looking at the man in the mirror and asking him to change his ways. - Michael Jackson

Sir, just because this isn't a how-to-use a certain site forum, that doesn't mean that people can't be a lot nicer and show someone how to use something. And I wish people would stop with the whole hand-holding nonsense. Just because someone doesn't know how to do a given thing, that doesn't mean he can't do a single thing.

And just because I've been banned from a given website, doesn't mean that everything was my fault. Sometimes it might be due to the types of people on the given site, and I've seriously ran into a lot of stupidity. I have not once met some decent guys who are patient, loving, understanding and smart. I'm constantly fighting off trolls, trying to get through to people who are not smart enough to ask questions, and I come across people who are WAY too sensitive when I try to explain something that is truly preventing me from following through on a given piece of advice.

GLAMBERT!! I have toe cheese that is more productive than you!!!

SHUT THE FUQ UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

STOP getting so uptight. If you have a problem with me, talk to me about it and be nice about it. I'm not on here to troll anybody or to upset anybody. I am a very understanding person, and if you tell me what's bugging you, I will stop doing whatever it is that's making you upset.


Trying to stand up to or get through to difficult people and people with bad attitudes is the reason why I was banned from Baton Rouge Rocks and Craigslist. By that, I mean people who get angry very easily, people who don't ask questions to see whether they provide the help that the person needs, and are thus not smart enough to just say that they can't help me, among other things, like small-minded attitudes, and their own views on what it means to be an adult.

I need to reach those who don't have a trollish attitude, are much more loving and understanding, and put a little more time and effort into their posts, and are not quick to make foolish assumptions about somebody, and are more willing to listen to and are more sensitive to someone's past experiences, and are thus more willing to share their experiences and to have some DECENT longer conversations about various other things, so I can learn about something much more worthwhile to try.

I'm not angry or mad at you . . . more like frustrated and disappointed with you.

:lol: I'm not angry or mad at you . . . more like frustrated and disappointed with you.

There is no reason to be mad, angry, frustrated or dssappointed with me. Just get on with your life, and let the audience I need help from respond.

In other words, hobbying musicians who like pop and soft rock music, are much easier to get along with and are smart enough to review my profile to get an idea of what I'm looking for, and are nice enough to share their experiences regarding the place they are reccommending, and are nice enough to give me a quick how-to on something when asked.

Stop with the annoying impulse responses, and quit making up things that don't exist. Realize what kind of people I need help from, and know when to NOT to respond.

I'm trying to reach individuals who are above all of the things I've recently been seeing on this board, and previous boards like Craigslist and Baton Rouge Rocks.

I'm trying to reach individuals who like more of the music I enjoy, are smart enough to review my profile, and are also smart enough to listen to some of my past experiences and use those as clues to know what to reccomend, and from there, talk about the reccommendation in more detail and how to use it. And unlike before, when I tell the person that I can't or don't want to use that website or venue because it makes me feel uncomfortable, he needs to be soemone who will see it for what it is: a legitimate reason, not an excuse.

All of this is important to me, and would make things much easier.

Hi, my name is Clifford. I'm a keyboard player who plays pop and soft rock covers for fun on his keyboard. I simply trying to find a few guys in my area who also play keyboard and enjoy playing a wide variety of pop and soft rock music. I only want to reach those who play for enjoyment and may not have any music buddies himself.
